Metabolism is the complex network of chemical reactions occurring within every cell and
organism, maintaining life, mediating ecosystem processes and affecting Earth's climate …

The proportion of major elements in marine organic matter links cellular processes to global
nutrient, oxygen and carbon cycles. Differences in the C: N: P ratios of organic matter have …

Nitrogen-fixing organisms are of importance to the environment, providing bioavailable
nitrogen to the biosphere. Quantitative models have been used to complement the …

To improve the efficiency of antibiotic degradation, the photosynergistic performance of
bismuth vanadate (BiVO 4) with a microalga, Dictyosphaerium sp., was demonstrated under …

Tetradesmus is a microalgal genus with biotechnological potential due to its rapid
production of biomass, which is plenty in proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and bioactives …

The aggregation behavior of nanoplastics (NPs) is crucial in determining their fate in aquatic
environments. Dissolved organic matter (DOM), characterized by its complex molecular …

An intricate set of interactions characterizes marine ecosystems. One of the most important is
represented by the microbial loop, which includes the exchange of dissolved organic matter …

The 'black boxes' of ecological stoichiometry, planktonic microbes, have long been
recognized to have considerable effects on global biogeochemical cycles. Significant …

Abstract Phytoplankton Chl: C: N: P ratios are important from both an ecological and a
biogeochemical perspective. We show that these elemental ratios can be represented by a …

Most of the current industrial processes for L-leucine production are based on fermentation,
usually in fed-batch operation mode. Although the culture technology has advanced in …
